A man who strangled his sister,
cut her up and dumped the parts in two dumpsters across Rome had
been thinking of killing her for two months, he told police
Thursday.
"I'd been thinking of killing her for two months but it was a
fit of rage, she'd been humiliating me continually," said
Maurizio Diotallevi.
According to preliminary autopsy findings, Nicoletta
Diotallevi was strangled and then dismembered with a chainsaw.
Police said she had just returned to Rome from a trip to
Switzerland.
"As soon as she got back," her brother reportedly told
police, "she started giving me orders again, treating me alike a
child.
"I waited for her to get out of the bathroom and I attacked
her in the living room, strangling her with a belt".
Diotallevi then dismembered her because of the difficulty of
disposing of a whole body, police said.
